Did you hear those sixteen words last night?
"The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa." -President Bush on 1/28/03
Talk about breaking news... now, if that is in fact true, this adds another reason to disarm Saddam but call me skeptical when the Neocons in the administration have been chomping at the bit to get into Iraq since Bush was inaugurated and then on 9/12/01, they realized that had an "in", an open door with which to drive their policy through.
As I said here, there is some very good reporting questioning the administration's pro Iraq war PR but unfortunately, Knight Ridder doesn't have the pull of the majors and have been shouted down by Fox News and the Neocons... let's see how much Secretary Powell pushes this in his upcoming U.N. sales job.
